Inquiry Lettre and Order Letter

A job inquiry letter, also known as a prospecting letter or letter of interest, is sent to companies that may be hiring but haven't advertised job openings. A well-written inquiry letter can help you get noticed by an employer who may not be actively recruiting. It's a way for you to get your resume in front of a hiring manager and possibly considered for employment even before a job is listed.

Why to Write a Letter of Inquiry

A letter of inquiry is a good way to connect with a company.

Because the letter is unsolicited, sending it shows that you're proactive, and have a genuine interest in the company. As well as inquiring about open or upcoming positions, a letter of inquiry can also be used to set up an informational interview with human resources or higher level employees.

While the company may not be hiring currently, or may not have a job posted that is appropriate for you, a letter of inquiry will help you be on the company's radar when opportunities that are suitable for you arise.

Finding a Contact

It's best to be able to address your letter of inquiry to someone specific, rather than having a generic greeting such as "Dear Sir or Madam" or "To Whom It May Concern." Check with your friends, family, and network to see if you know anyone at the company.

LinkedIn can be helpful for tracking down connections, as well as providing you with a communication method. See more tips for how to find contacts at a company.

You can send a letter of inquiry to people in the human resources department, or to manager-level contact in the department you'd ideally like to work in.

What to Include in Your Job Inquiry Letter

Inquiry letters should contain information on why the company interests you, and how and why your skills and experience would be an asset to the company.

Politeness and brevity are key when it comes to writing a letter of inquiry — remember, you're aiming to make a good impression, and show that you'd be an asset to the company. Follow the same tone and guidelines you'd use if you were writing a cover letter for an advertised job.

Unlike a cover letter, you can't use the job description to determine which qualifications and experience to highlight. Instead, emphasize how your skills and experience would be helpful to the company overall. Use the letter of inquiry to sell yourself, putting a spotlight on the strengths you'd offer the company, and why the company's mission and goals appeal to you.

How to Send a Job Inquiry Letter

Inquiry letters can be sent via mail or email. However, because you are asking about employment opportunities with a company rather than for a specific job opening, a mailed paper letter can make a much better impression than an email message which may not be opened or read.
